Chinese pig bites butcher

Editor PigProgress

A brave sow which bit a butcher in order to save
a boar from being slain has been placed at the top of a selection of the most
moving animals of 2007 in China, organised by an Internet user on a well-known
domestic online community.

On Valentineâ€™s Day this year, the pig rose to fame by rushing towards a
butcher who was preparing to slaughter a boar, knocking him to the ground.

The pig's owner later had to pay 800 yuan (US$108) for the butcherâ€™s medical
bills and the pig was confined to its sty.
